All the ceilings in the building are tile mosaics and are breathtakingly intricate in their design. Everything in The Library of Congress, at least in this building, has some kind of cryptic meaning- the statues, murals, mosaics, columns, stair rails- all have embedded within them some meaning that is deeper than their surface appearance. It's like walking through a Dan Brown novel, or being in a real live National Treasure movie.
